Grammy Award-Winning Rapper.
Actor. Husband. Father of four. Businessman. While a
tough man to sum up, the accomplishments of James Todd
Smith, aka LL
Cool J, are not.
He’s sold over 20 million albums. Won three Grammy’s.
Boasts 12 platinum- selling albums. He’s starred
in a hit TV show, and appeared in more than 20 feature
films, runs his clothing line, and, of course, is known
for having one of the best bodies around-celebrity or
otherwise.
Interviewers have described him as a self-made intellectual,
an avid reader, a wicked chess player and a loving husband
and father. Raised mostly in Queens, it wouldn’t
be a stretch to say that LL
Cool J has definitely become a king of the entertainment
world.

Hailing from Jamaica, Queens, Scooter is known as much
for his MacGuyver approach to finding new ways to make
muscles work harder for his clients. He has contributed
here to share, along with LL
Cool J, the body he helped create with his inventive
fitness methods.
While the road from the gyms of Queens to here has
been long, ironically, the same combination— the
streetwise, outwardly tough drill sergeant with a heart
of gold underneath—now makes Scooter the first-call
trainer of many of Hollywood’s biggest celebrities.
From LL Cool
J and Wyclef Jean to Q-Tip and Leonardo DiCaprio,
the latter having called upon Scooter to prepare for
his role in the now-acclaimed film The Departed.

Life is a workout. You need emotional endurance and
stamina. You just have to dig deep… no matter how busy
you are, or think you are, it can be done.
If you need someone to hold your hand or pat you on the back,
we’re here. If you need someone to kick you in the tail,
we’re here for that too. We’ve got your back, unconditionally.
The point is to do your best to succeed, because even if
you achieve half your goals, that half will be pretty satisfying
if your goals are held lofty enough.
